This NASA Hubble Space Telescope image features the active spiral galaxy Messier 88 (M88), located about 63 million light-years away.

We present a systematic theoretical framework for investigating first-order electromagnetic (EM) perturbations induced by gravitational waves (GWs). Beginning with the covariant Maxwell equations, we derive the complete first-order perturbation equations in terms of both the EM field tensor and the four-potential, demonstrating their equivalence alongside the residual gauge invariance under the Lorenz gauge condition.

The Federal Aviation Administration made the determination after analyzing the results of Starship Flight 12, which took place on Friday, May 22.

Video: 00:04:15 What did space deliver for Europe this month? From asteroid flybys to Mars landing tests, new discoveries from Webb and Hubble, and ESA astronaut Sophie Adenot capturing shooting stars from orbit, here’s your monthly roundup from the European Space Agency.

NASA has selected seven companies to provide construction, revitalization, and infrastructure improvements at the agency’s Johnson Space Center in Houston. The Johnson Space Center Multiple Award Construction Contract supports up to $300 million in upgrades to mission‑support facilities, utilities, and equipment across the NASA Johnson campus.

RR Lyrae stars in the bulge have been reported to be associated with the spheroidal, relatively metal-poor component. They offer a way to trace this component with precise distances.

Using the unprecedented imaging and spectroscopic power of the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, researchers have mapped the motion and composition of gas orbiting a black hole in the centre of Abell2744-QSO1, a tiny galaxy more than 13 billion light-years away. The results suggest that the 50-million-solar-mass black hole predates its host galaxy, possibly forming within the first second of the Big Bang, and must have been immense from the start.

German rocket builder Isar Aerospace has signed an agreement with Maritime Launch Services to conduct launches from the company’s planned spaceport in Nova Scotia. Isar Aerospace is currently working toward the second flight of its Spectrum rocket from Norway after an April attempt was scrubbed due to a leak in a composite overwrapped pressure vessel.

The Starlink 10-53 mission will be the 49th mission dedicated to flying SpaceX’s broadband internet satellites to low Earth orbit in 2026. Liftoff from pad 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is scheduled for 8:03 a.m.

The measurement of the Hubble constant $H_0$ plays a central role in modern cosmology. In this work, we investigate the potential of strongly lensed gravitational-wave (SLGW) signals from massive binary black hole mergers to constrain $H_0$ using future space-based detector networks.
